“Teresa was great settling our dog and sent photos. He doesn’t like being left and gets anxious but seemed really settled with Teresa! We would love to have Teresa help out next time we visit!”

“She is very compassionate and caring towards all animals, always takes well care of them, has an outstanding love for dogs. She treats them as if they are her own, in which she has several pets of her own that she loves deeply. I would, highly recommend MaKaylah as an excellent pet sitter for anyone that wants their furry loved one to be taken care of while out of town or for even just a day!!”
3. Tracy S.
“Tracy is the best pet sitter ever! She and her husband agreed to take care of my dogs Skar and Andy. Although Skar is a very territorial dog and not very friendly with new people. Tracy gave him all the love to earn his trust! Andy on the other hand, is a very loving dog and found a lot of love in Tracy! If you are thinking about hiring someone to care for your pets, Tracy is the perfect person you can trust!”

About: I have always been in love with animals. I have worked with all sorts of animals from cats, dogs, birds, horses, pigs, lizards, snakes, etc. I’m currently a stay at home mommy! So I have more time to spend with my babies and yours! I have a lot of pet friends who i sit with while their families are on vacation or at work. I have a fenced in yard for playtime outside and a nice neighborhood with low traffic for walks! We have a lot of space for your babies if they sleep in a kennel or just out in the house. I have seven dogs if my own or foster, currently. All are UTD on vaccinations, all are spayed/neutered, trained and friendly with all animals and children! I also have 3 birds and 4 cats. We love all animals here!
12. Rebecca C.
“I know Rebecca well. She gets involved in the animal's lives she is connected with. She works hard to meet the physical and psychological needs of the animal she is working with. She really gets to know the animals. After she takes care of an animal she knows them well enough to write a profile on them. She is caring and compassionate with all of her personal animals which are several species. This helps her meet the needs of any animal she is care for quite well. She is an awesome Caretaker for critters”
13. Emily B.
About: I’m very proficient in animal husbandry and training as I’ve been around horses and dogs my whole life, I have also volunteered at many facilities including Veterinary offices and attended 4 years of Vet assisting in high school as well as participating in FFA and being exposed to all different kinds of animals. One of my previous jobs was at a dog daycare/ boarding and training facility where we not only ensured the dogs enjoyment and safety but aided in the training of client dogs as well as our rescues under our head dog trainer. About 2 years ago I worked in Grooming as a bather dealing with a variety of dogs daily and having to handle difficult cases while completing their grooming process. I currently own and run my own Dog Training Business, where I work with everything from puppy basics, to behavioral modification, to service dog training. My goal is to keep your safe but give them the exercise and socialization they need but the fun they crave. I myself have 3 dogs of different breeds, one is a Cannan mix, and 2 Belgian Malinois. I’m experienced with dogs at all stages of life and development, as well as dogs with behavioral issues and keeping everyone involved safe. I’m working to build my business after we recently moved to the Huntsville area so I can easily work around my current schedule to help with your pets needs. I give frequent updates to clients and try to answer any and all questions they have along with giving piece of mind and following their pets normal routines as closely as possible. I offer a lot of enrichment and mental stimulation as well as socialization when possible. I’m a dog groomer who works part time which allows me to make my own schedule and fit my clients pet care needs on a case by base basis. Safety and animal welfare is my number one priority. We operate so that every person and dog are as safe as possible in any given situation by utilizing double leashes, crating, continuous supervision, and any other safety tools needed.
14. Whitney M.
“Whitney is phenomenal! I’m so thankful and blessed to have found her! Being new to the area and no knowing anyone, I was sick with worry about leaving my fur-babies with a stranger. Whitney eased my mind from the moment she first messaged back. From the meet and greet all the way through, I never felt rushed or silly. Whitney sent pictures every day of my trip and kept me updated. When I got home, my babies were happy to see me, but it wasn’t even like I’d been gone a week. It was obvious that she cared and loved on them so well while I was away.”
15. Molly C.
“Molly was great! One of my babies is a blind diabetic who is a very picky eater, and Molly handled him like a pro!”
16. Breanna T.
About: I would LOVE to take care of your dogs or cats! I have always owned dogs, and right now I have 3! I have plenty of experience with them and would treat your fur babies so well. 🫶🏼 I go to church on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights, and go to college from 8-12 a.m. on most Mondays and Wednesdays, but only until 11 on Friday! I have 3 wonderful dogs to keep your babies company, and plenty of time to play with them and make sure they are loved on. They will leave with PLENTY of affection and play time! We have a very large yard that we can take them out in, but I will keep them on a leash since the fence doesn’t go all the way around!
17. Melinda M.
“Melinda has always been very loving and responsible with all of my animals. Anytime I've needed her to watch my pets she's always been happy to help!”

About: I live on a farm, have 1 border collie named Maximus who is 12yrs old, 1 Catahoula Mrs. Katniss that’s 10months and train dogs as well. I have a 115 acre farm area where your pet can run and play! Awesome place for a dog and Max/Kat loves visitors. They can run around, play, throw rope, whatever your pet enjoys. If your pet likes to be active I certainly have the area for it! Your pet and I go on daily walks and daily awesome adventures. If needed I have GARMIN tracking collars to place on dogs that may venture away during adventures, just let me know and I’d be more than happy to let your furry friend borrow one of mine! It will have an awesome time and I’ll send daily photos of our cool trips to your cell phone. I will be the only person handling and taking care of your baby. Pets staying 7+ days will also get to enjoy basic obedience training a few times a day. Our goal is to send pets home better than they left. We pride ourselves in running a very clean and professional facility where your furry family members is family to us! *please note, we do understand that we may be more costly than other boarders on ROVER. However, we stand by the fact that you get what you pay for. Please consider that a professional trainer will be with your pet 24/7 while in my care* We are here to provide great customer service and care for pets, not engage in a price war. I work from home, train dogs, and will be with them 24/7. Your dog will receive continuous love from me and my wife. It’s a great environment. If your dog stays inside at your house it’s inside at mine. I can keep them in a kennel in the living room with my other 2 dogs.
